Villa Elsa is an exclusive property located in Fornillo, the famous district of Positano perched on the rock that drops sheer to the sea. The homonymous beach can be reached on foot, via stairs, in about 10 minutes. The villa is a unique example of 15th century "Positano" architecture with arabesque elements and colored majolica, it is that unique mélange that distinguishes the Positano style.
The villa can be reached from viale Pasitea, only on foot, along a typical Positano street with about 150 steps. The porterage service will be at your disposal to carry even the heaviest luggage.
Like any self-respecting Positano house, externally it has a clean, white style, with large arches and a balcony, ready to give the view a unique panorama. Entering through the small wooden door, you enter the "hidden gem" an internal courtyard covered by large barrel vaults with antique terracotta floors. The typical bougainvillea plant and cacti that surround the entrance to the house blend well with the ancient well, Carrara marble benches, lava stone tables in the Vietri style and architectural elements of Renaissance reference.
The ground floor consists of three large communicating rooms with balconies overlooking the external courtyard. The first door gives access to the built-in kitchen with wood-burning oven. Wooden architraves and ancient sideboards, decorated with Vietri ceramics, make the environment unique, but easily usable at the same time. A central table, surrounded by wooden benches and marble seats, allows you to prepare a rich breakfast. The kitchen, partially hidden behind the architrave, is made up of a 6-burner induction hob, electric oven, kettle, toaster, marble sink and everything needed for preparing meals. Small cellar room with large fridge/freezer behind the kitchen.
The kitchen leads to the room embellished with a collection of ceramics from every corner of Italy, from Caltagirone to Deruta, not to forget Vietri sul mare.
A service bathroom is connected to the dining room. Continuing we find a large reception hall, with a 50' flat screen TV, desk, bookcase, various armchairs and sofas, with fireplace and bar area. It should be noted that the lounge area has an enhanced wifi connection, to allow you to work in peace, even enjoying the outdoor area.
A large honor staircase in ivory marble leads to the upper floor, which houses two bedrooms with private bathrooms.
The first double bedroom is located to the right of the staircase, it is furnished with French-style furniture, a complete bathroom in shades of green embellished with brass details consisting of a large walk-in shower, bidet, toilet and sink.
The second bedroom is accessible from a side staircase to the main one. The bathroom is a huge open space. Furnished in shades of pink, it consists of a jacuzzi tub, toilet, bidet and sink.
From the bathroom you go to the bedroom, with two single beds that can eventually be converted into a double bed.
Both bedrooms are equipped with air conditioning and open onto a large terrace overlooking the sea.
